Rosy barbs are fantastic and do very well outside, I have them with goldfish in big ponds. The males colour up very much darker red than this with sunlight, the females stay that gorgeous gold. Another plus about keeping them outdoors they make excellent top view fish. The extreme metallic shine they have is concentrated along the dorsal area and head. Stunning. The neons unfortunately dont have this, the top is generally yellow in males and the bottom half is little bit orange. There are some very good metallic strains of very concentrated red Rosies in India selected for red and metallic and the so called "Red chilly" Rosy barb which I've only ever seen in Australia is the most intense red of them all females included. This latter variety may be genetically modified not entirely sure but the colour and metalic shine is utterly incredible. If they are glow-fish Rosies they dont look modified or artificial just very beautiful particularly in ponds outdoors against the dark bottom of pond weed.
